Environmental Research & Technology Division (ERTD)

at Brookhaven National Laboratory

Carbon Cycle Science & Technology Group Carbon Cycle Science & Technology Group
Aims to increase our understanding of the effects of global change on the carbon cycle. They also build and operate (FACE) facilities.
Molecular Environmental Science Group Molecular Environmental Science Group
Conducts research to increase the fundamental molecular-level understanding of mechanisms of contaminant transformation, sequestration and fate in subsurface environments...
Technology Development/Applications Group Technology Development/Applications Group
Applies and develops technology and software for environmental research, remediation, and management problems.
Tracer Technologies Group Tracer Technology Group
Applies perfluorocarbon tracer (PFT) technology to scientific and technical questions, to improve PFT methods, and to develop new applications for this unique tool.

Mission Statement - The Environmental Research and Technology Division (ERTD) conducts basic and applied research on critical environmental issues including the effects of elevated carbon dioxide and other pollutants, fate and transport of contaminants in air, soil, and water, environmental restoration, and waste treatment. ERTD research spans the molecular level through large field studies and the development of innovative technologies from proof-of-principle through applied technology development, demonstration and deployment.
